Pink Floyd

In June 1990, during the Knebworth Festival performance, Pink Floyd was experiencing a resurgence in popularity, particularly following the release of their album "A Momentary Lapse of Reason" in 1987. This album marked their return to the music scene after the departure of Roger Waters, featuring a more polished sound that appealed to both old fans and a new audience. The live show at Knebworth was a significant event, attracting over 100,000 fans, and showcased their expansive catalog, including classics like "Shine On You Crazy Diamond." Interestingly, this concert was one of the band's last large-scale performances until they reunited for the Live 8 concert in 2005. The Knebworth Festival exemplified their ability to draw massive crowds, symbolizing their enduring legacy in rock music despite lineup changes and internal conflicts.
